Gentlemen,

Is anyone hosting August yet? If so I would like to volunteer.

The Scholar of Moab

I'm ready to talk about this book now.

Emron's Choices for Next Round

Here are four titles that interest me. They are all Latin American novels (in translation) that are more contemporary than my usual reading/teaching in the region. 2 are by Brazilians, 1 is by a Chilean, and the other by an Argentine. Enjoy.

Nazi Literature in the Americas
The Hour of the Star

Borges and the Eternal Orangutans

The Absent City

Summer 2016 - Brandon's Picks

Next month is Adam's pick (Blood Meridian), and then we're up for new nominees. So everyone get your next batch of nominations up and let's have all the voting done by the next meeting so we can know what we're reading (and buy books in advance in case someone picks Don Quixote).

TIME'S UP LET'S DO THIS. LEROOOOOOOOY JEEEEEAANKINS!!!

Seveneves by Neal Stephenson

Foundation by Isaac Asimov

The Nazi Hunters by Andrew Nagorski

The Secret War by Max Hastings

Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco

Don Quixote by Miguel De Cervantes

Cobbler Thursday at South Fork Park

Let's go to South Fork Park Thursday night. I'll arrive at or before 7 and look for a spot across the creek and get a fire going. I'll bring cobbler and ice cream.

If the ginger beer aficionados are so inclined, they may sink their drinks in the creek the same way the Macleans of Missoula would.

FYI - don't count on cell phone reception up there.
